Biography – Erin Pell

Glassy-Eyed Beads

I have been working with glass since 1999. I began studying glass

blowing with Mark Chapman in Palm Springs, California, while working with

Mark I began playing around with a torch and started making glass beads.

When I had my children I focused solely on making glass beads and pendants.

Her pieces of wearable art glass have been sold through galleries throughout

Canada and into the USA.

I was born in New Brunswick, but grew up mainly in the Muskoka area of

Ontario. I have also lived in Oaxaca and Jalisco, Mexico; Porvoo, Finland;

California and New Hampshire, USA. And since 2007 I have been based in

Saskatchewan, Canada.

Since both my parents were professional fine crafts people, I grew up at

craft shows (slept under the table at my first one when I was 2 months old) and

was exposed to many, many different mediums and styles of art and craft. I

knew since very early that the arts and making were my calling in life. When it

comes down to it, I need to create.

Lampworking – Flameworking

I use a technique called lampworking to

create my little pieces of art glass.

Lampworking or flameworking as it is

sometimes called is the process of melting

glass rods in the flame of a torch to the point

where they are soft enough to sculpt into the

design I want. I can layer different colours to

get different patterns as well as using thin

glass rods, called stringers, to “paint” the

design onto the bead or pendant. Most of

my work is down freehand (which means I use

no mandrel to make a hole for the bead) at

the end of a glass rod (see the picture to the

right). I don’t use any molds or presses to do

my work which means that no two pieces are

exactly alike, though may be similar in design.

All my glass is annealed for strength, and is

checked before selling for any flaws. I take

great pride in the quality and originality of my

work.
